...because I am in love.

I look at it this way. The Cubs have lost 3 straight games for the first time this season. Three games they could just as easily have won. But still, the Cubs should feel blessed. Because second-place St. Louis also has lost three straight. At home. To one of the worst teams in baseball. If you had told me at the beginning of the season that on June 20 the Cubs would be in first place and 17 games above .500, I would have been elated. I am assuming that sooner or later, the Cubs will right the ship. And go on another lengthy winning streak. But if they don't, it's only baseball. A game. Life goes on. With ups and downs. And in the grand scheme of my life, all is well...because I am in love. --Jim Broede
